Net income                                    16,800           15,800          (1,400)

Accounts receivable increase      (1,000)            4,600           3,600

Cash flow Case C = -$1,400 (net income) + $26,600 (depreciation) - $3,600 (accounts receivable increase) + $3,600 (inventory decrease) + $1,000 (accounts payable increase) + $1,000 (wages payable increase) = $27,200
